There is growing concern from experts that we need to preserve a true range of food options to reflect the diversity of our cultures, races, traditions and our degree of metabolic health. Diana Rodgers, registered dietitian and executive director of The Global Food Justice Alliance, will share how the animal agriculture community can help secure the right of all people to choose nutrient-dense foods such as meat, poultry, dairy, and eggs, which are critical for nutritious, environmentally sustainable, and equitable food systems that can sustain both human life and the planet at the Animal Agriculture Alliance’s 2022 Stakeholders Summit. Early bird registration rates are available through March 9, 2022 at bit.ly/AAA22Summit.
Farmers and ranchers interested in attending the 2022 Summit are invited to enter the Alliance’s Instagram photo and video contest for the chance to win free registration, a two-night hotel stay and $300 travel stipend. Share a photo or video of you, your farm or ranch and a caption explaining why it’s important for you to “Be Informed, Be Ready, Be Here” in-person in Kansas City. The deadline to enter has been extended through February 14, 2022. Full contest details are available here.
